MST RMX 2.0 Aluminum Upgrades!! | Installing a Ball Diff in the RMX 2.0 RTR

I just put together a 2.0S. That differential was the most intimidating part of the entire assembly. I just used a toothpick with a good amount of grease on the end to pick up those ball bearings. I built the entire chassis up to that point, saw that diff, and stopped for a moment. I walked the dog, vacuumed the house, did the dishes, and cut the grass, to mentally prepare for the coming frustration. Luckily, my experience with real cars paid off and it went together in one shot. The only problem that I had was that I didn't tighten the two ends together enough, ended up losing power to the wheels and blowing my spur gear apart. But I stole some things off my RTR to fix everything.

Thanks for the video man, this helped a lot, only part I was struggling with is the thrust bearing assembly,it's real fun isn't it lol ,I was getting irritated last night but you took a different approach and it will help big time! Building my first drift car currently for my son

I bought a used MST RMX 2.0 and it has the same part that is broken, this video help A LOT, now im waiting for my parts... only thing is i have no idea what im doing lol but ill save your video for reference! Thanks for all the info and the link to the parts!

Great video brother very informative I'm about to swap mine out. Your accent gives me hope that I am not the only one drifting in Louisiana! Greetings from Denham Springs.

AWESOME Video I look forward on your future vides on this car I just got into drifting I recently got the MST RMX 2.0 1/10 2WD Brushless RTR Drift Car w/AMG GT3 Body (Silver)

I just bought one of these but haven't been able to use it..I cut the bodypost down to mount it with magnets but cut them to short oh well lol but this is a upgrade I'm deff doing thanks for the video man 🤟

🤘🏾💯 nice upgrades

thanks for the video mine just snapped and i was peeping these ones out

I’ve had this idea for a while now and I plan on doing it with my car. But you should make some intake holes on your corvette body (like the full scale turbo holes) and have piping go from them to your esc fan. Idk how well it would help with cooling but it’s something to think about

Nice work bro

That thing looks nice it’s pretty clean

Any tips on tightening the diff up? I currently got it that when you press the throttle and hold one of the tires it barely applies force to it (while hold the tire with the hand) soon as you let go it spins normally. Dunno if its too loose atm 🤔

got a question man about the no prep drag scene . is it always on 2s and if so is it always the case where you must use a sensored set up. reason i ask is i get amazing throttle reaction on my slash drag build with a 3s lihv with a sensor less hobbywing 5400, 90 spur/23 pinion, but with my 2s 100 c zeee battery i get a cogging launch/ delayed response. this leads me to believe that i have to get a sensored setup to get the launch i need. my question is do most leagues follow the 2s rule or do some use 3s. also if i start a league using 3s sensor less am i making a mockery of the hobby. thanks

With the ball diff installed can you hold one wheel/tire and and spin the other? Or is it still locked like the stock spool diff?

Hi can you use the 13/40T gear that come with the diff set? I am going to get one but someone said the gear need to use back the original

👍

Nice vid

Hey I’m about to try this! Were you able to use the ball bearings and all but with the stock diff gears? TIA!

Does it matter if the slits in the out drive cups are perpendicular to one another?

I tried building this ball diff and when i installed in car only one wheel spun. What did i do wrong?
